SC Reel Art

As a component of the SC Reel Kids program, the Reel Art program is an art competition for kids in kindergarten to 12th grade. Kids learn about fish and their habitats while creating their fun, creative fish art.

Contest is open to South Carolina students in Kindergarten through 12th grade in public, private, or home school. Students must submit original works of art that have not been copied from published photographs or other works of art. Students may use any type of medium to create their artwork such as colored pencils, chalks, watercolors, acrylic paints, etc.

Prizes are awarded for Best of Show, 1st, 2nd, and 3rd Places and everyone who enters receives a Certificate of Completion.

SC Reel Art winners are exhibited at the annual Palmetto Sportsman Classic held in March and the annual Southeastern Wildlife Expo held in February.
